Guaranteed Fun and Enrichment!

Pet care experience

We specialize in enrichment and fun for your dogs! We have spent the last 15 years finding fun ways to keep sport dogs happy and healthy. We would love to share some of our experience with your dog! Your dogs will have a structured but fun individualized routine with plenty of enrichment and exercise! Along with my experience with sport dogs and canine fitness, I have a bachelors degree in animal science, am a human registered nurse, certified pet food specialist and a certified raw pet food specialist. My daughter, Day La has been working with me for about 10 years. She is also experienced with handling and training. She is a Registered Behavioral Therapist and is able to transfer some of her experience with humans to her dog training abilities. She will also be a part of your dogs care and training during their visits!

An Epic Adventure with Rita S.: Guaranteed Fun and Enrichment (Plus, a Touch of Unicorn Magic!) If you're searching for a pet sitter who could win a "Best Friend of the Year" award, look no further than the incredible Rita S. on Rover.com. I had the absolute pleasure of entrusting my furry pal to her care, and boy, was it a pawsitively delightful experience! From the moment I reached out to Rita, her friendly and warm demeanor made me feel like we were old pals catching up. Her love for animals radiates from every word she types, and it's as if she has a secret power to make even the grumpiest of pets do a happy dance. During our meet-and-greet, Rita showed an uncanny ability to speak my pet's language. She knew exactly how to scratch behind those favorite ear spots and had a sixth sense for belly rubs. It was love at first woof! My pets couldn't stop wagging their tail and showering her with slobbery kisses, which is a sure sign of true pet-sitting magic. Now, let's talk about the care and attention Rita provided. It was nothing short of extraordinary. She crafted a personalized experience for my pet that had them feeling like a four-legged VIP. Daily playtime was filled with adventure, exploring all the sights and smells of the neighborhood. I'm convinced my pet came back with a whole list of secret squirrel friends and insider knowledge about local chipmunk hideouts. What truly impressed me was Rita's level of reliability and professionalism. She's the epitome of punctuality. Her communication was top-notch, keeping me informed and updated about my pet's adventures. It was like having a personal pet concierge, ensuring that I had peace of mind while my fur baby had a blast. To sum it all up, Rita S. is a true gem among pet sitters. Her friendly nature, genuine love for animals, and exceptional care make her a standout in the pet-sitting world. If you're looking for someone who will treat your furry family member like their own, showering them with love, attention, and belly rubs galore, Rita is the paw-fect choice. I can confidently say that my pet has found their second home with her, and I'm forever grateful for the amazing experience she provided. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (plus a million tail wags of approval!)

Rita is the BEST. She was so kind to our special old pitbull and cane corso, making sure they were comfortable and happy the whole time. She has the most amazing outdoor space for sniffing and running around. My buddies are happily knocked out at home now. They’ll be excited to go back next time!
